Zhenfang Zhu｜朱振方

I am Zhenfang Zhu (Chinese: 朱振方). I earned my bachelor's degree from the University of Science and Technology of China. I am now building a startup focused on AI Agent Coding.

AI is turning software creation from a capability held by a few into a possibility open to everyone.

In the past, software was expensive to create.

You had to learn to code, find engineers, build a team, and spend months or even years before an idea in your head could truly enter the world.

For a long time, most people could only use software made by others.

AI is changing that.

In the future, when an ordinary person has an idea, they should be able to build it directly.

During the summer of 2026, I watched hundreds of children spend two hours repeatedly asking AI to revise a small game or tool that no one had told them to make.

No exam. No teacher’s assignment. No prize.

They simply felt it was not good enough yet.

That was the first time I realized that AI may be doing more than making code easier to write.

And for the first time, it gives ordinary people the chance to move from users of software to creators of it.

I am increasingly unconvinced that reality happens only while we are awake.

We are used to calling everything that happens while we are awake “real”: studying, working, building companies, meeting, parting…; while the people we see, the places we reach, and the stories we live through after falling asleep are all classified as “dreams.”

But if an experience once made you afraid, happy, regretful, or confused, and you still remember it many years after waking, can it really be dismissed as unreal?

So I began to see life as two parallel worlds.

One begins when I open my eyes; the other begins when I close them.

The former leaves credentials, work, relationships, and time; the latter leaves memories, emotions, and traces that cannot be proven, but cannot be denied either.

Later, I stopped trying to prove whether dreams are real.

Because I realized that authenticity may not be the most important question at all.

What truly matters is whether an experience changes who you become afterward.

If a dream still frightens me or fills me with longing ten years later, or leads me to make a different choice, then by its consequences, it has already entered my life.

So I began recording both sides.

Perhaps what we call reality is only a dream we share, while what we call a dream is a reality remembered by one person alone.

That is why I made this website.

To keep, in one place, the selves I have been while awake and the worlds I have reached in sleep.

This is not my personal homepage.

For now, I am simply standing on this side and recording.

The next time I wake, I may be on the other side.
